[Armed over a century's worth of training to rip apart his innocence and replace it with something more practical, Kisuke saw no qualms with casually weaponizing a crush. At the very least, he wasn't trying to hurt her feelings or lead her on rather than just trying to keep himself from making everything in the world out to be an exercise as a Soul Reaper. He wasn't invulnerable. He could flirt a little.

Though, there was certainly a part of him that enjoyed any and every time he caught her so perfectly off guard. No, that was just a smidge of sadism.

He opened his hand with a little sleight of hand from his wrist, conveniently made a little easier when she adjusted his sleeve, producing a case with two rings and opening it just before she answered. Two wedding bands, as promised.]

Oh? [At her answer, he promptly shut the case and began tucking it back into his sleeve. He already got what he wanted, seeing Gin fall apart for a moment, so he didn't see the need to push further when he could look for ammunition during the party.

In a way, it was also an intelligence collecting session for ways to tease her later.]

You'd be surprised how often it works. Married couples always whisper to one another so it wouldn't look out of place if I leaned in to whisper in your ear at all during the evening, would it?

[That was a bad smile he was putting on.]
